-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've followed faq 14.4 on setting up a permanent swap. I've rebuilt the kernel with:
config bsd root on wd0a swap on wd0b and vnd0c dumps on wd0b Then I created the actual swap file: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap bs=1k count=262144 I added the info to fstab: /dev/vnd0c none swap sw 0 0 Then, as per the faq, I rebooted. Then I did sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap and got vnd0: 268435456 bytes on /var/swap Then I did: sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c And then: swapctl -l Device 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Priority swap_device 4195296 0 4195296 0% 0 /data2/swap 2097152 0 2097152 0% 0 /dev/vnd0c 524288 0 524288 0% 0 Total 6816736 0 6816736 0% Everything's fine at that point. But, when I reboot, I have to repeat the commands sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c in order to get the extra swap back again. I thought from reading the faq that it becomes permanent, but I can't get it to. Can someone maybe point out if they see something I'm doing wrong?
